These "reformers" are already deprecated, insulted and ignored -- by their own religious communities, the very communities they are trying to reform. There is nothing that we kaffirs can do to make them acceptable to their own communities. Imagine for a moment that Martin Luther had looked to the Moslem world for support in his endeavor to reform the Catholic Church? The very notion is absurd.
